ADAPTER FOR CONNECTING A MEDICAL LASER TO A FLEXIBLE WAVEGUIDE OR AN ARTICULATED ARM

摘要

A dual port switching apparatus (12) comprising a connection part for mounting to a base unit (11), an input beam port to receive a main laser beam from the base unit (11) in an input optical path (22), a first output port (14) for connection to a flexible waveguide, a second output port (15) for connection to an articulated arm (16), and a switching element (56) movable between a first position and a second position to direct an input beam to one of the first output port (14) and the second output port (15).
